PreSchool-Grade 3–With klunks and bumpety-bumps, a bear moves into his new apartment. The bear downstairs, who is trying to write and likes peace and quiet, finds him a bit too noisy. As the newcomer continues to unpack his boxes–…pots, skillets, juicer, colander, omelet maker. Klink-tink! Tinkety-klink!–the downstairs resident loses her patience. She goes to talk to her new neighbor and discovers that he is an avid fan of her cookbook. He explains that he is a chef and makes an omelet using one of her recipes, and they both enjoy a breakfast together. Many of the lighthearted pen-and-ink watercolor illustrations show the two floors of the cozy house so that readers can see what is happening to both tenants at the same time. The bears' distinct and opposite personalities are made evident by their bodily postures and facial expressions, and in the fun details in their decorating styles. The subtle message of acceptance and tolerance is conveyed with humor and wit and will surely strike a chord with many readers.–Wendy Woodfill, Hennepin County Library, Minnetonka, MN |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Nice story, adequately long, illustrations are great, and characters are likeable. However, the sounds of things that move, fall, hit, etc. are pushed too far. They do not make sense and you need to make many explanations to your child to make it clear what is happening; eventually you start skipping them. Overall, a good addition to your child's library. |
